Love water lilies but this one was super pretty. Captured it in Okinawa.
I’m off to work. I was updating my dedication list so I have one for Wolf Bound, and then I’ll have one more to dedicate after that for Highland Wolf, and then???? I need more dedicees. I know. Made up word. But I’m a writer and it suits my purpose. lol
Have a fun made-up word day!

These are not the covers. I just used them for reference. I have them, but the one doesn’t have my title or name on it yet.
I keep visualizing scenes for both books, so I try to get my 2,000 on Wolf Bound daily, since it’s nearly done (11,000 words to go), and whatever I can on the other. Yesterday was a little one day, so my off day. I managed 1,000 on Wolf Bound and 300 words on Highland Wolf. But I’ve been getting 2K on the contemporary and 3K on the Highland one for several days. Yay! I started at 8K for the Highland one a few days ago. It’s now 22K! Once I finish Wolf Bound, I’ll jump on the Highland one exclusively like I did with the other initially.
I need to pick up my granddaughter at noon, so I’m off to work on the stories since this is NOT my off day, before I have to get her.
I finally got an appointment to take my car in for a recall item that I’ve needed to do for a couple of years, one that’s critical, but the Ford dealership wouldn’t do it. I would have to drive 6 hours round trip to Waco where I purchased the vehicle. But I finally got it scheduled here, so I’m hoping I can get it done without any problems.
We are getting into the 90s all week. This is too early!
Have a beautiful day!

Well, I made it to 49K last night on Wolf Bound, didn’t expect it. I was playing out a scene in a book I haven’t started but have the covers for in the middle of the morning when I couldn’t sleep, so I’m going to try and write it down before I totally forget it. It’s a fantasy trilogy.
We were supposed to get rain all day, but now it’s not coming until later. We really need it. Or…I should say I do or I have to water the new plants. And I got some sleep last night!!!!!!! That was a miracle. Four hours straight of sleep, then coughing for a while, then 3 hours of sleep. So it was a good night! Still feel like a zombie, but I really needed that.
Hope you have a delightful day! Mine is going to be great!

Created composite with 3 textures from Daily Texture and the kitten is a friend’s photo, then I mixer brush painted it.
I only managed a 1,000 words yesterday with little one here. I was doing more outdoor painting and planting. I’ll nearly be to the halfway point on Wolf Bound by Sunday.
I’m off to write before I run off to pilates. I keep hoping I’ll get better at it. lol They change up exercise routines so when I think I’m getting better at one thing, they throw me for a loop with something else!
Have a beautiful blueberry day!

A bicycle in Cameron Park, no owner to be found. What happened??? When my co-workers and I were hiking, we found this bike and no rider so I took a picture of it and it’s one of my favorites–a total mystery.
Do you ever feel you are running out of time to get things done? I have so many things I want to get done and every day…I run out of time. Even so, I managed to paint some hot pink fences for my granddaughter, put together a patio set, wrote another 2,000 words on Wolf Bound, put out more dirt in one of the flowerbeds, watered, and cleaned up the patio. We’ve been having super high winds and hot days, cloudy though, which really is great. Hopefully we’ll get some rain next week, but that means no painting. No need to water though either.
And!!! Some of my tomatoes are beginning to appear. But something already ate at one. Argh! It’s teeny, tiny too, so that was a surprise.
Hope you get everything done in a day that you want to!

I’m so excited this rosebush is getting bigger and bigger each year. Not as big as the red rosebush I have in the backyard, but it’s perfect for the front yard!
The light purple salvia is all in bloom also and it’s filled out so much.
In our hot, hot, hot Texas sun everything does better in some shade. The tomato plants I put in full sun are so much more stressed than the ones that have some shade. Some I planted under ferns and they’re really doing well. And the Asiatic lilies that are usually on a couple of inches tall are around 2 feet tall this year. Woohoo! That’s because they’re getting more shade on their roots from volunteer crepe myrtles. They haven’t bloomed yet, but soon!
I’m off to get things done. Well, other things done! Have a fun day!

I have been playing around with updating some of my fae book covers. I’ve also been going through each of the books to make sure the formatting is fine and it’s uniform from book to book and trying to catch a mistake or two. So it’s an involved process.
I’ve been having issues with Word though adding a whole blank page between chapters after a chapter break. So I can’t update the print versions. I’ve tried everything, but nothing seems to fix it. The problem is that I wrote these back when we had Word Perfect, then Word 97 something or other, now Word Docs. I figure that’s some of the problem. But typing up 200 pages + for each book on a new Word Docs doesn’t appeal at all. I can just see myself making tons of new mistakes. And then would it even be all right?
I have to go take little one to pick up big sister. And I received edits in for one of my wolf books I need to start working on.
Hope your day is going great!

On a zinnia flower in my backyard. Okay, so I took the photo last year as the zinnia aren’t up yet, but the seeds are just sprouting. The swallowtails are out already though. I’ve seen a couple looking for flowers in my backyard. They know they will be there. Roses and Gerbera Daisies are already blooming!
I’m off to work on the Highland book. I’m up to 35K.
Have a beautiful day!

You can look at this two ways–it’s another day to create an adventure, work on something you normally don’t have the time for, live another day in our lives…or, ack, I have to work another day for my boss and don’t get one extra dime for it!
It’s your choice! I look it as having an extra day to do more stuff!
Have a great Leap Day!

I believe I took the original photo of him in Waco. They have a smallish zoo, but I love it and like the Omaha zoo, parking is great. Not so in Houston or San Diego! 🙂
Little one is here today. I turned in Mated for Christmas, yay! I worked a little on Huntress edits last night. I need to do the blogs for the Lori Foster gig. And the taxes. ugh.
So my fountain was empty and I had the brilliant idea of not carrying buckets of water out to it since we aren’t getting any more freezing weather, probably. And I hooked up the hose, turned it on, had a little water, and then nothing. Wait, what? I checked the spigot in front, it was fine. Water is fine in the house. Now what?
Okay, I’m off to get ready for little one. Hope your day is astounding!
